What is the MIT Sloan Evening MBA program?
The MIT Sloan Evening MBA is your path to one of the world's most respected MBA degrees, without stepping away from your career. Designed for high-achieving professionals with on average five years of full-time work experience, this full-time, STEM-designated program lets you attend classes two evenings per week, as part of a cohort of ambitious peers. You'll follow the same rigorous curriculum as MIT Sloan's traditional MBA, with a foundational core, flexible electives, and Action Learning labs, earning a degree of uncompromising quality that's built around your life.
Unlike most evening MBA programs, the MIT Sloan Evening MBA meets in person and is cohort-based, giving you the best of both worlds: the ability to stay in your role while building deep, lasting connections with high-performing peers and becoming an integral part of the dynamic MIT ecosystem.

- Designed for Working Professionals — Accelerate your career with your current organization while you pursue your MBA

How does the program work?
Over the course of 22 months, the Evening MBA blends management theory with hands-on problem-solving, technology, analytics, and leadership development delivering a personalized MBA experience built for impact.
